A moment that they hope will forever be anchored in their memory. A few hours before the first PSG Champions League final, Sunday evening against Bayern Munich, the wait, stress and excitement were felt around the Parc des Princes this Saturday among the supporters. In front of the club’s official store, many of them sported brand new Parisian shirts. Some have been waiting for this final forever. “I can’t wait to be there,” impatiently Marine, 28, who will have the chance to watch the match from the Parc des Princes on two giant screens. PSG is organizing a broadcast for 5,000 people.
Originally from Chartres (Eure-et-Loir), Xavier, 37, was not so lucky. But on the eve of this historic final, he came to shop and proudly wears the colors of PSG. “For me, it’s a good year, we will bring it home this Champions League. You always have to be confident. 1-0, 3-1, 2-0: the forecasts were going well on the forecourt of the Parc des Princes. With PSG always the winner.
“We have known everything with this PSG, the good as the worst”
Rather confident, the supporters were nonetheless stressed. Like Sébastien, 33, a lifelong PSG fan: “We are under pressure (sic) since the 3-0 victory over Leipzig. We are impatiently awaiting this final, the players can do it, everything is playable over 90 minutes ”. “Renowned” for having suffered from stinging remonstrances in the past, this time PSG has the opportunity to show that it is also a great European “Paris is my first love story, says Romain, 33 years. We supporters have suffered a lot so far, we have known everything with this PSG, both good and bad. But Sunday, we have the opportunity to erase everything, and to live a great moment for the club. “
In the PSG store, fans were able to meet a certain Cyril Kongo this Saturday. The urban artist, who supports the club, was present to have the posters of the match he created himself signed. A poster representing the cup “with the big ears”, but also joy and hope. “As I am a very optimistic person, I wanted to bring out the colors, symbols of victory”, indicates the graffiti artist.
The club has decided to put on sale, only in stores, 50 collector posters of the match signed by the artist, for 800 euros. An amount that some supporters will no doubt not hesitate to spend, if PSG wins, since it will also remain forever in history.
